Removal of piracy communities
  • Okey, so what is conclusion of your point? You can sue any instance for anything, so what should instance owners do? Sounds like "not having an instance" is the only right answer to your logic.

    Seriously, let's just sue lemmy.world because lemmy.dbzer0.com talks about piracy.

  • Removal of piracy communities
  • The Pirate Bay is "technically" not breaking any laws

    As another user mentioned, TPB hosting magnet links and torrent files. Bring down TPB site down = no access to torrent files/magnet links = you can't download the torrent (teoretically). Sharing link to TPB site does not break any laws and is totally legal.

    You don't have to break laws to get in trouble if you are pissing off rich people. They'll find something, anything, to nail you on. It's totally ok for random normal people to not want to be "heroes" to a bunch of other random people they don't know. Heroes attract villains, and instability. And while it's just starting to get off the ground, lemmy doesn't need villains or instability.

    Basically "Lorem ipsum"

    Let the smaller, less visible servers do the shady but "totally technically legal" stuff.

    So you do support piracy? Or not?

    Big servers with big targets on their forehead need to be stable and drama-free.

    "drama-free" lol. This is drama. This is drama that should not have happened in the first place.

  • No, it's not. Turns out Lemmy.world does not like sea at all. In fact, they blocked "info kiosks" at ports near sea, so you have no idea about what is going on in the sea.

  • What part is illegal? Are they sharing files on that instance and your instance re-hosts it?

    From my understanding, discussions are legal, guides are legal, tips are legal, but actual files (aka "copyrighted content") is illegal. There are no files shared there, links at maximum, but institutions should be after those content-sharing websites, not forums.

    I am against this decision and I am happy that I am not part of admins team.

  • I'd rather have a "Would you like to hide all Sports related Content?" button than a "Would you like to hide all NSFW content?" button
  • Yup, developers.

    Instance admins adding such tags would make it inconsistent and basically impossible to use. It should be unified = implemented by Lemmy developers.

    P.S. Developers who develop Lemmy software. Admins who own and manage instance (website/server).

  • I'd rather have a "Would you like to hide all Sports related Content?" button than a "Would you like to hide all NSFW content?" button
  • I really wish there could be tags and sub-tags.

    Tag examples:

    • Politics
    • Sport
    • Anime
    • News
    • AI

    Sub-tag examples:

    • US
    • Europe
    • Africa
    • Basketball
    • Volleyball
    • F1

    Some sort of curated list by Lemmy developers that might change over time depending on user demand.

    Then client apps can fetch such list from any server and allow you to apply such filter.

    Imagine being able to block whole category of sports? Anime? News? Whatever people want/don't want.

  • It's not just Adobe. Now Logitech wants me to go to a random website in order to add peripherals to my computer, and I'm met with this when I go to the page they tell me to
  • I kind of see the point in this.

    Things I can do with Chrome'ish browsers:

    1. Install GrapheneOS
    2. Reinstall my Pixel phone.
    3. Flash ESPhome devices.

    All this with a single browser, no 3rd party applications. I think it's called WebSerial and it's a neat feature. Quite sad that Firefox doesn't have it.

  • What is the point of geo-restriction?

    Some websites are available only from US. Or some streaming service allows certain content only from US.

    Why does such geo restriction exist? What is the benefit for the company to implement this?

    FM radijas ir reklamos

    Sveiki. Ar man vienam cia taip, kad pastaruoju metu neimanoma klausyti radijo stociu, tokiu kaip Zip FM ir Power Hit Radio del itin didelio reklamu kiekio? Jausmas toks, kad 50% ar daugiau laiko yra skiriama kalbejimui (reklamos ir pokalbiai) ir masinoje daznai tenka switchinti tarp skirtingu radijo stociu, kad rasti nors viena per kuria groja muzika.

    Ar man vienam tokia patirtis, ar is tikruju radijo stotyse gerokai padidejo reklamu kiekis? Pries 5+ metu neatsimenu, kad butu radijas buves toks erzinantis, taciau dabar be Spotify ilgesniu kelioniu neisivaizduoju.

    Kaip jus manote?

    Yes, ChatGPT became dumber and I 2 days ago I cancelled my subscription

    Title. myself and my colleague did notice that chatGPT (GPT4) started to answer very poorly in the recent month or so. For example, it was quite efficient at drawing mermaid charts, but not anymore. It fails to do a simple drawing.

    Also I've seen quote a lot of posts regarding GPT4 quality downgrade on r/ChatGPT subreddit.

    so I guess it's confirmed that OpenAI has downgraded quality of ChatGPT. Whatever that reason is - I stopped paying for ChatGPT and simply use GPT4 API with some ChatGPT interface for simple questions. It's going to be even cheaper for me.

    EDIT: if you are interested in what I am using - project called BetterChatGPT.
